Chapter 574: The Promised Thing
"Give it back to you?" Wang Li looked at Xiaolong and smiled weirdly, "Of course I want to return it to you, this is originally your thing." ”
"Great, I thank you." Xiaolong said to Wang Li gratefully, for fear that he would regret it.
"But......" Wang Li interrupted Xiaolong unhurriedly, "I promised to return it to you, but I didn't say that I would return it to you now." ”
"You're lying to me again!" The little dragon took a step back angrily, and his body "gaba" exploded for a while, and his body seemed to be a little bigger.
"Want to grab it?" Wang Li put away the Nine Dragon Beads and re-grasped the ruling, and the surging spiritual power continued to emanate from his body, instantly overshadowing the momentum of this little dragon who was not yet an adult.
Seeing this, Xiaolong was instantly deflated and said, "I didn't plan to rob it, but how can you not talk without words?" ”
Wang Li sneered and said, "I didn't plan to talk about it, I just hope that you can do us a little favor before returning the beads to you." Since you don't want to, take it yourself! ”
"I do, I do!" When Xiaolong heard Wang Li say this, he hurriedly agreed, "I can help you with anything you need my help." ”
"Isn't that enough? Young people don't always think about fighting and killing. Wang Li said, "Do you know what this place is?" ”
"Under the Imperial Tomb." "The water here goes straight under the Yellow River, and you can go from the Yellow River to the East China Sea. ”
"I don't care if this water arrives in the East China Sea or not, you know it's under the underground palace." Wang Li said, "We are going to the palace in the center of the underground palace now, do you know how to go up?" ”
"Of course I do." Xiaolong nodded happily, "I can take you up." ”
"Hmm." Wang Li said happily, "You are very smart." Seeing that the girl over there is not, she has difficulty moving, and the pet is scared by you again, you ......"
"I'll camel her up." Xiaolong immediately took over.
As he spoke, the little dragon flew to Lingyan's side and waited for Lingyan to ride on his back. Lingyan glanced at Wang Li, she nodded silently to herself, and rode up with confidence.
Xiaolong waited until the spiritual smoke rode on his back, and his heart was happy, now Jiulongzhu can come back. It rushed forward happily, didn't go far, only felt a sinking on its back, and when it looked back, Wang Li was also riding on its back, sitting behind Lingyan.
"One person is also a camel, and two people are not the same camel." Wang Li said to Xiaolong with a smile.
Xiaolong secretly cursed "shameless" in his heart, but said on his lips: "You are right, there is no difference between a few camels." ”
Speaking flattering words, Xiaolong put away his careful thoughts, carried Wang Li and Lingyan with peace of mind, and flew forward.
After a short walk on the water, the cavern began to grow larger. The little dragon flew upwards, and soon, the surface of the water disappeared, leaving only a dry cave that meandered upwards.
After a while, traces of artificial chiseling began to appear in the natural cave, and an upward staircase appeared below.
Xiaolong fell to the ground, and after letting Wang Li and the two of them come down, he said: "If you go up from here, you can go up directly, I want to go back." ”
"Okay, thank you." Wang Li said with a sincere face, "Then I won't send it, goodbye." ”
"Goodbye...... See you...... ......."
Wang Li's smooth farewell made Xiaolong almost forget his purpose. It flew two meters forward before it realized that there was still something important to do.
"That ......" Xiaolong hesitated and wanted to ask Wang Li to return to Jiulongzhu.
"What? Reluctant to go? Wang Li looked at Xiaolong suspiciously, "Well, let's go to the palace with us?" ”
"Uh......" Xiaolong hesitated for a moment, then lowered his head and said, "Well, don't forget to promise me something when the time comes." ”
"Oh? Do you want to get the Kowloon Pearl back? Wang Li suddenly realized, "If you want you, I said it earlier, I thought you were going to go up with us, since that's the case, let's talk about it after we go up." ”
Xiaolong despised Wang Li's shamelessness in his heart, and despised his own stupidity, so he followed Wang Li's side and walked up.
"I said, you're so big, can you squeeze it? Can it be made smaller? Wang Li looked at the little dragon that was about to occupy the entire passage, and complained dissatisfiedly.
Hearing this, Xiaolong nodded, and a burst of white light flashed, turning back into a two-foot-long small snake, floating behind Wang Li's head.
Wang Li looked at Xiaolong with satisfaction and said, "This is what it looks like." ”
Seeing that the little dragon had become so small, Lingyan couldn't help but go up and tease it: "Wow, it's so cute!" ”
Xiaolong was touched by such a beautiful woman as Lingyan, and seemed to feel embarrassed, so he simply lay on Wang Li's shoulder.
Soon, the passage came to an end, and a large door appeared in front of it.
Wang Li knew that behind the door was the central palace. He reached out and patted Xiaolong on the head: "Hey, go open the door!" ”
Xiaolongxin said, damn mentally retarded, you have long hands, I haven't grown long! But when he thought that his Nine Dragon Beads were still in Wang Li's hands, he had no choice but to snort, rushed to the door, turned into a huge body again, and slammed into the door.
"Boom!"
After a loud bang, the door fell directly to the ground outside. The little dragon curled up his tail, rubbed it against his head, and turned back into a tiny body.
Wang Li walked through the door and looked around. I saw that the area here is not large, just a corridor. It seems that this is still the outer perimeter of the palace.
After turning a corner from the hallway, there was another small door. Wang Li pushed the door in, and found himself behind a screen.
Bypassing the screen, he could see the environment clearly.
The secret passage they walked through underground appeared at a back door of the central palace, so as soon as they came out, they reached the innermost part of the palace.
In front of the screen is a huge dragon chair. Of course, that dragon chair was just a golden dragon coiling around its back, and it wasn't actually like a chair and more like a bed.
Under the raised platform of the dragon chair, three steps separate the huge space below from the high platform. Below are a variety of portraits, standing respectfully in two rows, all the way to the main entrance of the palace.
Every once in a while, more guards and palace maids appeared.
It seems that this place wants to recreate the appearance of the royal palace on the ground.
But these are not Wang Li's concerns. He wanted to know where Jiuding was placed.
On both sides of the palace, from the main gate, there are two staircases that spiral upwards and appear to lead to the second floor. Wang Li no longer hesitated, and went directly to the side of the stairs to the second floor.
As soon as he entered the second floor, Wang Li saw the huge coffin in the center at a glance, needless to say, it belonged to the First Emperor.
Wang Li was not interested in the coffin, and no matter how good it was, it was estimated that it could not be compared to Jiuding, so Wang Li walked directly to the stairs on the third floor.
The staircase leading to the third floor was in the opposite direction, so Wang Li quickly walked through the coffin and walked towards the stairs. When passing by the coffin, Wang Li stopped in surprise.
"Huh?" Wang Li looked at the open coffin lid, which was covered with treasures, but there were no bones. "Why is this coffin empty? What about Qin Shi Huang? ”
Lingyan followed behind Wang Li, and also looked at the empty coffin curiously, and suddenly thought of the empty coffin he encountered earlier, so he said, "Isn't there a secret passage down here?" ”
"That's not right." Wang Li shook his head, and suddenly remembered Li Si's words, "The First Emperor is no longer human. ”
"So, where did he go?"
Wang Li thought about this question in his heart, but he understood it in an instant. Looking back at Lingyan and the little dragon beside him, Wang Li said solemnly, "Next, we are going to the third floor." Be careful, everyone! ”
Lingyan knew that he had no attack power, so he nodded solemnly. Xiaolong didn't understand what was going on, and said indifferently: "You are so powerful, and I am here, what can make us afraid?" ”
Wang Li smiled, and suddenly thought of an idea. Let Xiaolong follow, how can you not let him contribute?
"Yes, so you go up first, and we'll come later." Wang Li said to Xiaolong with a smile on his face.
"Okay." Xiaolong readily agreed, and then asked Wang Li with some concern, "You won't run away with my Nine Dragon Pearls, right?" ”
"Cut! We're not here for you. Wang Li glanced at Xiaolong with disdain, "Besides, this thing is useless to me." ”
Xiaolong was right when he thought about it, so he didn't hesitate to go to the third floor.
Wang Li grabbed the earth spirit smoke that was about to go up with Xiaolong and said, "Let's go up later, let's rest for a while." ”
"Why?" Lingyan asked incomprehensibly.
"Because ......," Wang Li smiled, "You'll know in a while." ”
The two rested leisurely on the second floor. After a while, I heard what seemed to be a loud noise overhead. Lingyan stood up vigilantly and said to Wang Li: "Let's go up quickly, there is a situation on the third floor!" ”
"Huh? Why didn't I hear it? Did you hear it wrong? Wang Li leisurely pulled the spiritual smoke and sat down again, "Have a good rest, you will be busy for a while." ”
Lingyan Fox sat down beside Wang Li suspiciously, but she obviously heard a loud noise from the third floor, but Wang Li didn't believe it.
Just as he was about to persuade Wang Li again, he heard a huge movement at the top of the staircase, and the entire second floor also shook.
Lingyan looked up, and Xiaolong's body was nearly a foot long, as if someone had thrown it out, and it was tumbling down the staircase.
Rolling to the bottom of the stairs, the little dragon twisted his body again, and went straight backwards, until he hit the corner of a decorative subway cow in the corner, and then scurried up with a "whoosh", nervously looking at the staircase leading to the third floor.
"Huh? We were about to go up, why did you come down? Wang Li said to Xiaolong with a wicked smile.
"Upstairs...... Upstairs ......," Xiaolong said nervously.
"How's it going upstairs?"
"There's a big guy upstairs, that's amazing!" Xiaolong said hesitantly.
